Arctic Monkeys - Old Yellow Bricks lyrics
[Arctic Monkeys - Old Yellow Bricks lyrics]
Old yellow bricks, love's a risk
Quite the little escapologist
Looked so miffed when you wished
For a thousand places better than this
You are the fugitive but you don't
Know what you're running from
You can't kid us and
You couldn't trick anyone houdini, love
You don't know what you're running away from
Who wants to sleep in a
City that never wakes up?
Blinded by nostalgia who wants to sleep in a
City that never wakes up?
She was enraged by the way
That the emperors were trapped in the cage
And the days she deemed dull
Leading to nights reading beer bottles
You're such a fugitive but you don't
Know what you're running from
You can't kid us and
You couldn't trick anyone houdini, love
You don't know what you're running away from
Who wants to sleep in a
City that never wakes up?
Blinded by nostalgia who wants to sleep in a
City that never wakes up?
You're at a loss just because
It wasn't all that you thought it was
You are the fugitive but you don't
Know what you're running away from she said
"I want to sleep in the
City that never wakes up
And revel in nostalgia" i know I said
"Who wants to sleep in a
City that never wakes up?"
But Dorothy was right though
Quite the little escapologist
Looked so miffed when you wished
For a thousand places better than this
You are the fugitive but you don't
Know what you're running from
You can't kid us and
You couldn't trick anyone houdini, love
You don't know what you're running away from
Who wants to sleep in a
City that never wakes up?
Blinded by nostalgia who wants to sleep in a
City that never wakes up?
She was enraged by the way
That the emperors were trapped in the cage
And the days she deemed dull
Leading to nights reading beer bottles
You're such a fugitive but you don't
Know what you're running from
You can't kid us and
You couldn't trick anyone houdini, love
You don't know what you're running away from
Who wants to sleep in a
City that never wakes up?
Blinded by nostalgia who wants to sleep in a
City that never wakes up?
You're at a loss just because
It wasn't all that you thought it was
You are the fugitive but you don't
Know what you're running away from she said
"I want to sleep in the
City that never wakes up
And revel in nostalgia" i know I said
"Who wants to sleep in a
City that never wakes up?"
But Dorothy was right though
